Efficient ecological function optimization for endoreversible Carnot heat pumps

Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics
According to the definition of exergy-based efficient ecological-function (EBEEF) which is proposed as product of exergy-based ecological-function (EF) and coefficient of performance (COP) in previous literature, this paper applies the EBEEF to analyze ...

Efficient ecological function analysis and multi-objective optimizations for an endoreversible simple air refrigerator cycle

Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics
Combining finite time thermodynamics and exergetic analysis, analogous to the definition of ecological efficient power for heat engines, this paper proposes a unified performance indicator for various cycles, exergy-based efficient ecological function (E

Complementarity of Ecological Goal Functions

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2001
This paper summarizes, in the framework of network environ analysis, a set of analyses of energy-matter flow and storage in steady-state systems. The network perspective is used to codify and unify ten ecological orientors or extremal principles: maximum power (Lotka), maximum storage (Jørgensen-Mejer), maximum empower and emergy (Odum), maximum ...

Evolutionary and ecological functional genomics

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2003
A unique combination of disciplines is emerging--evolutionary and ecological functional genomics--which focuses on the genes that affect ecological success and evolutionary fitness in natural environments and populations. Already this approach has provided new insights that were not available from its disciplinary components in isolation.

Avian Diversity: Speciation, Macroevolution, and Ecological Function

Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution and Systematics, 2020
The origin, distribution, and function of biological diversity are fundamental themes of ecology and evolutionary biology. Research on birds has played a major role in the history and development of these ideas, yet progress was for many decades limited ...

Power, efficiency, ecological function and ecological coefficient of performance optimizations of irreversible Diesel cycle based on finite piston speed

, 2020
By connecting the finite time thermodynamics and the finite speed thermodynamics, an irreversible reciprocating Diesel cycle model is established with considering the irreversibilities caused by finite piston speed, heat transfer, friction, and internal ...

Managed floodplain inundation maintains ecological function in lowland rivers.

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Managed environmental flows are one mechanism by which managers may restore carbon dynamics, diversity and ecological function of rivers affected by anthropogenic activities.

Mixing effect of polylactic acid microplastic and straw residue on soil property and ecological function.

Chemosphere, 2019
Microplastics have become a contaminant of increasing concern in soils. Although biodegradable plastics were considered as alternatives of traditional plastics, some evidence showed that biodegradable plastics might produce more microplastics. Until now,

Do industrial pollution activities in China respond to ecological fiscal transfers? Evidence from payments to national key ecological function zones

, 2020
The policy of payments to National Key Ecological Function Zones (NKEFZs), a type of instrument for Ecological Fiscal Transfers, has been introduced in China.
